Sidney is great with our puppy and was very accommodating to do a drop-in on short notice. Would recommend her to anyone looking for drop-ins and dog walks!

Jonathan was awesome! He was very communicative with me and responsive to my cat's needs (which is just needing pets and head scratches!). Will definitely book again!

My first experience with Rover and I could not have chosen a better pet sitter! My cat is normally very shy around unfamiliar people- she took to Chynna instantly. The pictures of Luna instantly put me at ease. I will definitely rebook with her next time!!

Holland was a pleasure to work with. My dog can be quite anxious, and Holland was wonderful—carefully following my instructions and showing real empathy and understanding for my dog’s needs.

Devinder takes great care of my cat Theo, who can be a bit sassy and territorial, especially when it comes to his personal space. I’d definitely recommend Devinder to anyone with a quirky or particular pet - he handles them with care!

Elizabeth is fantastic! Clio requires special care, and Elizabeth was super communicative and comprehensive in our upfront prep, and was great during her drop-in visit to make sure everything went smoothly for Clio. She was attentive to our fur baby's needs, and Clio seemed to have a great time hanging with her! We will definitely be working with Elizabeth again!

This was my first time using Rover and having someone watch our Frenchie, Nova, while we were out in Nassau, Bahamas for a week and Kayley was amazing! We were a little nervous at first, but she made us feel so comfortable with her consistent updates, photos, and care. She took Nova on long walks, gave her lots of playtime and attention, and made sure she was safe and happy every day. You can tell she genuinely loves animals. I’d highly recommend Kayley to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their pet!
